In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Barry Kerzin, a monk, educator and personal physician to The Dalai Lama, shares his wisdom on handling life’s challenges with grace.
He provides practical tools for stress reduction, avoiding burnout and cultivating self-compassion while emphasizing the importance of finding joy in uncertainty.
Embracing Uncertainty
Life is inherently uncertain and recognizing this can lead to a greater comfort with change.
This acceptance can also open up avenues for creativity and inspiration, allowing individuals to see change as a natural part of life rather than something to be feared.
We all have a diamond in the center of our chest. It’s an energetic Confluence and there’s tremendous Joy there. The problem is that diamond is a little bit Dusty, little dirty so we have to clean up that diamond right so we can access it and that’s where incredible joy and meaning come from. – Dr. Barry Kerzin
Discovering Internal Joy
True joy and meaning come from within.
Often, these feelings are overlooked due to busy schedules or scattered thoughts.
By practicing mindfulness and self-care, individuals can access the incredible joy and meaning that lie within them.
